Question

Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (2, -4) and parallel to y = 3x - 6.

y = 3x - 10

y = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 2

y = 3x - 12

Answer 1

Okay same thing here....parallel lines have same slope....and use the point slope formula to solve for the equation

y - (-4) = 3(x - 2)

y + 4 = 3x - 6

y = 3x -10

and to check...plug in the 2 numbers

-4 = 3(2) - 10

-4 = 6 - 10

6-6 yes so it works :)

Answer 2

Thanks for the medal :)
